Corsair HS55 Wireless

The Corsair HS55 Wireless improves on its predecessor, making it better sounding, more user-friendly, and ever so slightly plushier while keeping the price just as affordable. For some reason, however, Corsair also tones down the bass, which might turn off bass-worshipping gamers.
